Leuven Institute for Advanced Study – KU Leuven (Belgium)

Junior fellowships, October 2024 on ‘Justice and Migration’

Leuven Institute for Advanced Study (LIAS) invites applications for visiting junior fellows within the project ‘Justice and migration’ (13 October – 25 October).

The fellowships are intended for advanced Ph.D. students, postdocs or junior faculty members (tenure track) from Una Europa Universities. Applicants will be able to participate in expert workshops, discussions and lectures as well as actively engage with the LIAS community. During their stay, all fellows will have an office at Holland College so the informal contacts can be enhanced at coffee and lunch breaks. Within the LIAS project the following perspectives will be highlighted during the stay of the senior fellows:

- Eu migration policy: What is was, what it is and what it is predicted to become
- Migration, Demography and the Economy
- Migration and Social Cohesion
- Migration and International Law
- Migration, Integration and Citizenship
- Communicating about Migration
- Migration, Xenophobia and the European extreme right
